Twitter, Facebook, Myspace... The Undisputed champ?
« on: June 16, 2009, 11:00:08 AM »
The "Update Age" is seemingly growing everyday with people blogging or giving simple updates through out the day of what is going on in there lives. My question is... which service is your favorite? Myspace was the huge fad for a couple years, and then Facebook took off. Now, the "Twitter Age" seems to be upon us. What is your favorite to use if you are part of this phenomenon? Is there one not listed that maybe we haven't really heard about?

I'm going with Facebook right now because I haven't jumped on the twitter train yet, but I am looking into it...

I'm definitely a Facebooker.  I have a MySpace, but I haven't really used it for about six or seven months, and I haven't really done any updates over there for at least a year.  Twitter?  Yes, I tried Twitter...but in the first 5 minutes, about 10 porn bots wanted to "follow" me, I was spammed, and the site locked up on me several times. 

That's exactly why I'm sticking with Facebook.  Yes, I did have a stalker on Facebook after writing a story that made front page for my local newspaper, but I haven't really had any problems other than that with Facebook.  (How do I know I had a stalker on Facebook?  The first comment on the paper's website was the result of a quiz I took on Facebook!  Must've been a pretty darn good story if they had to go to my Facebook to find something to criticize. ;-))

Primarily a Facebook user, but Twitter is gaining ground as a great means of connecting with other people in your career (or future career) field from all over the world. You can get comments and opinions on ideas and concepts, which I hope to be utilizing soon.

Definitely beats those "I'm having lunch" and/or any wacky combination of daily activities from celebrities that use Twitter.

I used MySpace once. Hated it, ditched it.

I still use Facebook, though not as much as I used to. I usually check it once daily and that's it. I haven't jumped on the Twitter bandwagon yet...dunno if I will, either.

People are tired of the f**kery and drama, but if we'd actually talk to each other sometimes instead of a whole bunch of private conversations with other people, it'd go a long way to perhaps fixing the problems most seem to see in the site.

A Big Rich Fields Drew Carey And Jeff Davis Fan For Ever From Kirsten

Rich Fields Thanks Kirsten. I pick out and supply all of my own clothing. That light gray suit is hard to pair with shirts and ties... but I think the lavender shirt and purple patterned tie pulled it all together.

My Favorite Announcers On The Price Is Right Are Johnny Olson Rod Roddy Rich Fields Jeff Davis.

I Met And Took Two Pictures With Jeff Davis On May 24, 2012 He Is So Nice And Kind In Person.

Rich Fields said this about Drew Carey will always be the first to defend Drew (Carey). He's one of the most genuine, down to earth people in Hollywood that I've ever met. He was the first to come to me and tell me that the show was going in a different direction. He assured me it was not his decision to let me go and I believe him. No one else was open and honest about it, but Drew was. We've continued working together on different projects and we stay in regular touch. We'll be good friends well into the future.

I just think MySpace sucks through and through. I've been tempted to get a Twitter, but if I do, it'd be to just follow other Twitters [and I've found a few I'd follow].

Facebook FTW.

Used Myspace for a couple of years, and after looking at Facebook once, I thought "Why would anyone use Facebook?"

Once more people got Facebooks, I switched over as well, and I rarely check Myspace. I'd say I'm just keeping up with the times, but I'm not planning on getting a Twitter any time soon.

Me and my friends mostly use Myspace. I have a Facebook, but I rarely use the thing. I am starting to use Twitter more. It's a really fun site.

I said (and still do say, I guess) the exact same thing about MySpace.  Of course, I actually joined Facebook way back when it was actually, you know, a face book.  Back when I joined in, what was it, January of 2005?, there really wasn't all that much to Facebook outside of a profile page you set up so other people could find you at your particular college/university.  I signed up so people could find my cell phone number and I could stalk get contact info for others, should I need it.

Right now for me, I use Facebook and Twitter. Both I did not use when the first started. (I am not an early-adopter when it comes to techy things.)I like Twitter because you can say what you want to say in a sentence or less. However, I like Facebook more because you can personalize it. That being said, I do not like the way Facebook is becoming more and more like Myspace.    I despise Myspace and finally deleted my account almost 6 months ago.

I'm beginning to not like any of them.

I used to have Myspace until around 2006.  For one, I couldn't stand it anymore because of its immaturity, and two, I just outgrew it.  Since then, I have gotten it 3 times and have quit 3 times, the last time hopefully for good.

I'm beginning to not like Facebook as much anymore because it has lost a lot of quality in the last year.  Back when I signed up for it, it was something that you had to wait until you were in college or got invited to it.  It made it a lot more special to have one.  Now, anyone can sign up for it, and it's becoming more and more like Myspace every day.  All it needs is customizable backgrounds and a MP3 player to play when you go to someone's profile, and it'll be Myspace 2.

And Twitter: as of right now, I don't ever plan on getting one, because I wouldn't have enough time to update it, nor would I really want to share with a lot of people what I'm doing all the time.
